RE:
Jo’Lyn Corporation/Falcon Waste & Recycling, Inc.
Petition forAdjusted Standard, AS 04-02
Dear Ms.
Gunn:
I write to support the adjusted standard petition submitted by Jo’Lyn Corporation and Falcon
Waste & Recycling, Inc.
Jo’Lyn and Falcon use granulated bituminous shingle material
(GBSM) to produce a useful and clean paving product.
GBSM
is a clean and consistent material
generated at the end ofthe manufacturing ofroofing shingles.
GBSM contains no post-
consumer material, and is not shingle tear-offs.
Jo’Lyn and Falcon purchase GBSM from
shingle manufacturers, and then use a grinding and compaction process to create a paving
product called Eclipse Dust Control.
Eclipse Dust Control has a number ofapplications,
including paving of driveways, parking lots, feed lots, and bike and walking paths.
The paving
product is proven effective.
There is no downside to the process used by Jo’Lyn and Falcon:
It converts GBSM into a useful
paving product, while utilizing a material which might otherwise be landfilled forthe lack ofa
market.
There is a demonstrated market for this product, and Jo’Lyn and Falcon have standing
orders for it.
I urge the IPCB to grant this
petition for adjusted standard.
Jo’Lyn and Falcon use an innovative
process, which is environmentally friendly and provides a market for GBSM.
Granting the
petition for adjusted standard will allow Jo’Lyn and Falcon to use this innovative process, while
protecting the environment and providing business opportunities in the State ofIllinois.
